HOW TO ATTACHED CROCHETED ROSE TO BARRETTE

SEWING METHOD
One way to attach the rose to the barrette would be to use thread or yarn. Thread a needle, stitch through the crocheted rose and then loop the thread around the barrette. Loop around the barrette several times to secure it in place.

HOT GLUE METHOD
For a snap barrette to attach the rose with a glue gun, put glue on the end of the barrette and a little glue on the rose. Press together and allow to dry completely.

If using a larger barrette, just put glue on the front on the barrette and attach roses.
